this can be a trick one; if you use it as a pronoun, then you should say éstos (masculine) or éstas (feminine). Now, if it is an adjective, then it's estos (masc.) or estas (fem). How do you know if it is a pronoun or an adjective? very simple:
If there is a noun after it, then it is an adjective: e.g. ¿Quiénes son estos señores? (Who are these men?) or ¿quiénes son estas muchachas? (who are these girls?).
If there isn't a noun after this word, then it is a pronoun: e.g.
Quiero comprar éstos. (I want to buy these). In these case, the word éstos refers to somthing that has been mentioned before.

these = estos/estas
These books are new = Estos libros son nuevos.
These pearls are black = Estas perlas son negras.
or éstos (with an accent)
I want these = Quiero éstos
